Re: Albums of 2024 Discussion Thread
Has anyone else been listening to Diamond Jubilee by Cindy Lee? It's amazing, solidly my favorite of the year so far I definitely get the appeal, it's pretty good. It's got this idyllic landscape to it that, maybe this sounds weird, but reminds me of David Lynch's suburbia, even though I've never s...

I'm finding some good stuff this year. I'm starting to lean toward the side of 2023 being a particularly lackluster year.
After hearing Aviary a couple months ago, I'm most excited for the Julia Holter. If she pulls it off, she's joining my top 100 artists.
